First Baptist Church is a Southern Baptist congregation in Charleston, South Carolina, founded in 1682 under William Screven and one of the oldest Baptist congregations in the American South. Its current Greek Revival sanctuary, designed by Robert Mills, was built in 1820. After a temporary closure during area reconstruction in 2019, the congregation returned to its renovated downtown campus and historic sanctuary on Easter Sunday, April 17, 2022.
